    I Feel So Much Better!

    I have been working hard to figure out what causes fibromyalgia and after researching and reading and talking to people I believe it is emotional. I have read Dr. John Sarno's book "Healing Back Pain" and I have just started doing EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). For a few days I have been...

    Fibro Cause?

    I have heard/read that Fibro is caused by childhood trauma/accident/stress/ etc. My chiropractor explained it as your "fight or flight" reflex is turned on high and will not shut off. I got to thinking about things yesterday and this is my thought. My childhood and early adulthood were very...

    Fibro Caused by PTSD?

    I was reading the information on the site and it said that fibro can actually be caused (they think) by trauma. I find this fascinating because I have a long history of trauma in my life, and no one else in my family has fibro. There seems to be no basis for where or how I contracted it...

    At What Age Did Your Simptoms Start?

    So, I've had problems since I was very, very young. My memory is shot completely, so I rely on my mom for most of the information, but I do have some memories of being traumatized from being told I'm "making it up to get attention". My doctor said it's very uncommon for someone to have...
